Mrs. Swafford's Second Grade Behavior Management Each student has a number with his or her number on it. The first time a student gets in trouble, the student has to move his or her baseball to foul ball. The second time it moves to strike 1, and so on. At the end of each day, each student has to write in his or her agenda which place their ball was on. The parents have to check and sign the agaenda each night. If there is a student who ends up on strike 2 or 3, Mrs. Swafford would write the parents a short note telling what their child did to move their ball that many times.
Behavior Management:
For discipline, a "card system" can be used. Cards are color-coded by rules and procedures that students must follow to meet the expectations of good behaivor. Below the color-coded descriptive cards is a pocket chart with a label for each child (they each have their own slot). If a childs card must be pulled, it is their responsibility to look and see which expectation they have not followed or met and then move the corresponding color card into their pocket. The "card system" is located on the back of the door, as it is only the business of the student who is being disciplined. (Idea taken from Mrs. Woody's 1st grade classroom).
